Professional Forum Soldier Sponsorship Program

The Army Aviation Association of America (AAAA) instituted the Professional Forum Soldier Sponsorship program to help underwrite the cost of sending one Junior Soldier (LT, WO1, E1-4), from each AAAA chapter to the AAAA Annual Professional Forum.

The AAAA will provide one room, registration and tickets to all events for a Soldier and his/her spouse from your chapter. All you have to do is select them and underwrite the travel cost of getting them to the Forum site. This represents more than a $750 value per chapter!

Help show your appreciation for the outstanding achievements our maintainers, crew chiefs, ATC professionals and all our Soldiers accomplish year-round by sending them to the AAAA Annual Professional Forum and the AAAA National office will do the rest.
